Soniccouture have released eBow Guitar which they tell us is the first sampled re-creation of the
unique sound of the eBow. The eBow ( Energy bow) is a small, hand-held device that 'bows' the strings of
a guitar using an electromagnetic field, producing a unique guitar sound, with
a very slow attack and infinite sustain.
Soniccouture tell us that two guitars were painstakingly sampled, an acoustic and an electric. Both
were sampled with the high and low power ebow setting, with vibrato and
without vibrato. Several note off samples were recorded for every note, to make
the instrument's response as detailed and lifelike as possible. The level of the
note-off sounds can be mixed to taste by the user. The acoustic was recorded
in full stereo to give a natural, spacious image. Features
